Did he list the two underage children as part of his household size?

Ok, this thread needs a lift. I say @Crazy Cat cannot be considered for the favorite until we see the book.

Yes, I can see Gaza being wiped. The question is what will be the reaction of the rest of the Middle East, particularly those unfriendly to Iran.

Yeah, I agree, it would definitely be difficult as who would know. I think in the case of Geowrain, he was a mod or organizer, so that subset of members probably were notified.

I do not think it was widely communicated. I heard TBone refer to it once in passing about a year ago. I came very close to mentioning it in my post, but wasn’t sure it was my place.

Personally, I would wait until you are back. When my wife applied in January 2018, she had a planned trip for February. We had planned on it taking 6-12 months, but it came much faster. Luckily it lined up for her and she was back before the interview as rescheduling interviews is a royal pain. Good Luck!

You can always try.

Interesting timing by Hamas (and Iran). Trying to derail normalization talks between Israel and Saudi Arabia?

They are currently processing F1’s from January 2015, so a few more years. Yes, you can leave for study in a different country. Good Luck! https://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/Bulletins/visabulletin_November2023.pdf

Nope, it is the socialist that threw the tantrum when she lost in 2016.

A great citrus wheat ale.

The Queen of petulance. (Thanks to Boiler for posting this first)

What did these folks expect when they replaced Lori Lightfoot with someone even more "progressively" Left.

I am still trying to understand why folks are leaving the socialist paradise. Is Bernie and AOC going with them? Was Commander also deported?

I believe you can, but I will defer to @Mike E. Reading through the instructions of the N600, since your son already has a US Passport, I do not believe the GC copy is required as the LPR status was already established on the passport application. Good Luck!

Found this fairly recent thread with someone in a similar situation. The thread does not include the outcome, but you might try PM'ing the OP to see if they worked it out as their profile is showing they are still active. Good Luck!

It is hard to prove a negative, but I assume you provided evidence you never entered Iran after you turned 18. I am sure the consulate has seen this before, but they will need to verify that evidence, hopefully quickly. Good Luck!

There are so many, it is hard to choose. Mike E, Crazy Cat, OldUser, Chancy, Redro, TBone, Ontarkie, Family, Mindthegap, Pushbrk, Rocio, SalishSea, Cathi, Boiler, Verrou, Timona, Beloved_Dingo... The fact that all of us are here helping out others work through immigration issues and questions when we can and when we have time is amazing.

Probably looking to be able to claim the first male to have an abortion.

Looks like Planned Parenthood is getting in on the money as well. Planned Parenthood is Helping Teenagers Transition After a 30 Minute Consult. Parents and Doctors are Sounding the Alarm. In late July, while his parents were out of town and after he had come of age, Fred went to Planned Parenthood, which prescribes hormones to any legal adult without a letter from a therapist or a formal diagnosis of gender dysphoria. The only requirement is a brief consultation, usually with a nurse practitioner, about the drugs’ effects, which range from mood swings and male pattern baldness to permanent infertility. How brief? Fred arrived at his local clinic, on North Fullerton Ave. in Montclair, New Jersey, at around 11:00 a.m., according to phone tracking data his parents used to monitor his whereabouts. By 11:39, they received a text message from CVS: Fred’s estrogen prescription was on its way. Instead of a months-long evaluation by expert psychiatrists, a nurse practitioner had, in little over 30 minutes, prescribed their special-needs son a powerful drug without their knowledge or consent. https://freebeacon.com/latest-news/planned-parenthood-is-helping-teenagers-transition-after-a-30-minute-consult-parents-and-doctors-are-sounding-the-alarm/

Well, the plot thickens. Heard the wife (girlfriend at the time) was only worried about replacing the vehicle afterward. Apparently that vehicle came from Bob’s foreign friends. New Jersey cop rushed to help Bob Menendez's wife after Mercedes crash despite being retired and convinced patrolman on duty to let her go without a sobriety test or having to hand over her phone https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12602251/New-Jersey-cop-rushed-help-Bob-Menendezs-wife-Mercedes-crash-despite-retired-convinced-patrolman-duty-let-without-sobriety-test-having-hand-phone.html

How very DPRK/CCP of her. I suspect she feels there needs to be special camps set up run by the Democrats and DEI types to make sure everyone thinks like the regressive Left. How does she actually have any credibility herself?

Here is the visa bulletin. With your sister's petition, you are F4 and they are currently issuing visas for those that were filed in 2007. If your mother is a USC, she can also submit an I130 for a potential F3, but it is still a long wait. Good Luck! https://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/Bulletins/visabulletin_October2023.pdf

Been to a few of these mandatory self-criticism sessions. I agree, their basis does not pass the smell test. The Implicit-Bias House of Cards DEI trainings don’t work because one of the concepts on which they are based is junk science. The problems with DEI trainings are not in their tone, however, but in their substance. The implicit-bias theory (also called unconscious-bias theory) on which these trainings are based has no scientific basis, as years of examinations have consistently demonstrated. Lee Jussim puts it politely in his “12 Reasons to Be Skeptical of Common Claims About Implicit Bias,” but the Open Science Foundation’s archive of Articles Critical of the IAT and Implicit Bias renders a harsher verdict. In 2011, Etienne LeBel and Sampo Paunonen reviewed evidence that measures of implicit bias possess low reliability. In other words, when you test for implicit bias multiple times, you rarely get the same result. Their conclusion was that some part of “implicit bias” is really “random measurement error.” In 2017, Heather Mac Donald’s intensive examination of the theory and its empirical basis (or lack thereof) concluded that the “implicit-bias crusade is agenda-driven social science.” And Bertram Gawronski’s 2019 review of the scholarly literature on implicit-bias research also concludes that there’s no proof that people aren’t self-aware enough to know what’s causing their supposedly “implicit” or “unconscious” biases; and that you can’t prove that there’s any relationship between how people do on the test and how they behave in the real world. As far back as 2009, Hart Blanton and colleagues reexamined research data on implicit bias. They found that 70 percent of whites who supposedly displayed implicit bias against blacks actually discriminated in favor of blacks. https://www.city-journal.org/article/the-implicit-bias-house-of-cards

Hmm, I wonder who BU was paying to obtain virtue? Did find it interesting that Henry Rogers’s BIL is a content policy lead at YT. Boston University Loaned $600K to a Mysterious Trust Run by Ibram Kendi’s Brother-In-Law In September of 2020, just weeks after Ibram X. Kendi launched the Center for Antiracist Research at Boston University, the school approved a $600,000 mortgage to an unnamed professor. The university won’t say which professor that loan went to, but it was doled out to a trust controlled by Ibram X. Kendi’s brother-in-law, Macharia Edmonds. The mortgage helped to cover the down payment for a $4.56 million luxury penthouse triplex that boasts the "best of sophisticated Boston living." Public real estate records obtained by the Washington Free Beacon show the trust is controlled by Edmonds, a former Obama campaign official and attorney who now serves as a Global Content Policy Lead for YouTube in San Francisco. Edmonds's only apparent affiliation with Boston University is through Kendi, who is married to his sister, Sadiqa, also an associate professor at Boston University. Edmonds controls the trust on behalf of its unnamed beneficiary. While it’s not uncommon for universities to provide sweetheart loans and mortgages with below-market rates to poach star professors from their competitors, experts told the Chronicle of Higher Education in 2009 that the IRS strongly discourages such transactions. https://freebeacon.com/issues/boston-university-loaned-600k-to-a-mysterious-trust-run-by-ibram-kendis-brother-in-law/
